I have only been riding my byerlys for the past 2 years, if i get a pair that isnt wakeskate specific, what do i need to do to them. does the tongue absorb lots of water? are you guys cutting out alll the padding or just some? is leather really bad? etc etc. thanks.

| Dude you have to get wakeskate shoes, those other guys are lying, regular skate shoes are like cement on your feet. You will drown, they should make a law that says no regular shoes. If you didnt notice that was entirely sarcastic and regular shoes actually give you more response and are hell of alot more comfortable. |

| I hated my andersons my feet always hurt in them that was an older model so they might be more comfortable now. |

I ride in Vans Old-School lace ups, one killer wakesk8 shoe. I think the Rowley XLIII would make a cool shoe for wakeskating also
